@darnell so sad. Where's that really tiny violin when you need it?

Well it turns out you can’t make money off a social network full of raving lunatics since:

  • no advertisers will come near the site
  • none of the main participants in “discussions” will open their pockets
  • Kanye Ye is broke and too busy trying to stay relevant by any means necessary

Now ‘scuse me while I look for an orchestra of tiny violin players… 🤏🏾🎻🎼🎶

@darnell Is it because everyone who was on there has moved back to Twitter?

@lukevanin Yep. Many are leaving their digital caves for the Twitter empire.

@darnell

If I recall correctly Trump first became a Parlar-refugee when twitter banned him.

@mechtild55 I am not sure. I do know he had discussions on joining Parler though.

@darnell Maybe Elon is playing 5D Chess after all! /s

@alpha1beta 😂🤣😂 Maybe. But yeah, many of the previously banned trolls 🧌 are back on Twitter!

@darnell But you see, he's a genius! Bring all the right wingers back, kill Gab, Parler, Truth, etc, then ban all the trolls again, leaving them without a megaphone! /s

I don't think Elon Musk can think about lunch at breakfast time. Plus, if he's not a nazi, he's close enough that he can be mistaken for one. More Ford than Tesla that's for sure.
